Asylums. We should, no - we NEED - to bring back asylums.
If you have a family member that's suicidal or mentally deficient you've currently got two options. Call the cops every time they act up, or spend a ton of cash on doctor visits. Doctors that are afraid to really treat mental issues because they're being pressured from the AMA etc. to be "kind and understanding".
Asylums would solve this. Some people simply can not function in a civilized society. For those people a padded room or a cocktail of drugs to keep them peaceful until they die is the only humane option.
